Completely updated with new photographs and text, New York
from the Air is a lush, romantic, and ultimately hopeful
tribute to one of the most thrilling cities in history.
World-renowned bestselling photographer Yann
Arthus-Bertrand—shooting from vantage points few people ever
attain—presents the power and beauty of Manhattan’s amazing
skyscrapers, the bucolic joys of Central Park, the majesty
of the Upper West Side’s castlelike apartment buildings,
and much, much more. This new edition includes unpublished
photographs of landmarks built since the 2003 edition. New
York historian and cartographer John Tauranac’s lively
commentaries lead readers on a truly spectacular tour from
above the city that never sleeps.
